Principles of Fair Use
There are four factors that are taken into consideration in determining whether or not a use falls within the fair use exception. They are:
1. the purpose or character of the use: is your use non-profit, educational, personal, parodic, commercial? Is it Transformative?
2. the nature of the work being used: is your use factual or imaginative, or a mixture? Is it published or unpublished?
The second factor looks at the creativity of the work. Creative works have more protection than factual ones, so the more creative a work is the less likely the use will be considered fair under this factor.
Fair use tends to favor published works more so than unpublished works. The rationale for this is that authors should be able to decide when to publish their work.
Favors Fair Use
Favors Permission
Fact
Fiction/Imaginative
Published
Unpublished
3. the amount of the work being used, and its substantiality in relation to the whole: will you use a small or large amount? is the part you use central and essential?
Favors Fair Use
Favors Permission
Small Amount
Large Amount
Amt. used is not significant to work
Amt. used is heart of the work
4. the effect of the intended use on the market: will your use tend to diminish the market or ability of the creator to earn a profit from the original? The Transformative Factor: The Purpose and Character of Your Use In a 1994 case, the Supreme Court emphasized this first factor as being a primary indicator of fair use. At issue is whether the material has been used to help create something new, or merely copied verbatim into another work. When taking portions of copyrighted work, ask yourself the following questions:
Has the material you have taken from the original work been transformed by adding new expression or meaning?
Was value added to the original by creating new information, new aesthetics, new insights and understandings?
